It's The Italian Job so obviously, I head to Kent in England for the race of a lifetime. But first I have to get ready. So, it's the Fiorano test track in Italy where I spend a while not getting ready at all.

I try the gym but it's all rubbish so instead, I decide to compare Ferrari's 458 Italia and the limited edition 599 GTO. On paper, that doesn't seem fair. But in reality....

Next stop is the infamous Imola race circuit. The Stig joins me to get the most out of the Porsche GT3 and its stripped out cousin the GT3 RS. Also present are the Lamborghini Gallardo LP570-4 Superleggera and the jaw-dropping Mercedes SLS AMG with its gullwing doors.

My face gets a workout too, thanks to an Ariel Atom. With a V8 engine.

Then, for some reason, The Stig does something terrible to the face of Rubens Barrichello.

My final Italian shake-down comes from the £1.3 million, Nurburgring lap record holder - the Zonda R with its 750 horsepower V12 and slick tyres.

Finally, I'm ready. So it's back to England for my first ever Classic Touring Car Race... I don't know the car, I don't know the circuit and I'm up against 20 experienced rivals... What could possibly go wrong?

Plus, the making of The Italian Job is revealed. Yes, we lift the lid - and blow the doors off - all the behind the scenes action. A team of fifteen on the road for ten days . Blistering Italian sun, mechanical problems and technical headaches plus tricks of the trade... It's all here is an exclusive tell-all video diary.

Then of course, everything else explodes. Over the past 15 years I've destroyed some hateful cars in some ingenious ways. Now, for the first time ever, the best five of those destructions - as voted for by you - are brought together on this second disc.

5Best stand alone Clarkson for a while

Just watched this. Got to say it is the most satisfying stand alone clarkson dvd i've seen. The past couple have seemed a bit , doing it for the money, boring!!. This is much closer to the top gear format. Much more feel and emotion. The extras are a great watch on their own. Add it to your Santa list or buy if for someone.

4Excellent Clarkson!

If you know Top Gear then you should know what to expect from this blu ray offering. Excellent entertainment, even the race he is in at tthe end and the race to get the car ready is entertaining!

The drawback for me is that the digital copy can only be used if you have a Windows PC which is a downer as i was looking forward to watching it on my portable media. So beware if you have a Mac as you won't have that option! :-(
